About This Quiz

Watching movies is a hobby that most people enjoy, and one of the best ways to spend time with friends is by going to your local movie theater. But the whole experience is not just about the movie itself; it's also about the snacks and drinks as well! From popcorn and pretzels to candy and soda, there are a wide variety of foods to choose from when going to the movies!

Now you might be wondering about the correlation between your age and your taste in movie theater snacks. As a person ages, their palate may become less picky and more refined, which opens up their taste buds to new types of flavors. And speaking of flavors, are you familiar with the five basic tastes? They are as follows: salty, bitter, sour, sweet and savory (which is also called "umami"). 

When it comes to food, your taste buds experience these types of flavors (maybe not all in one sitting, but it's generally spread throughout different types of dishes). And movie theater snacks are no exception to this type of experience. So whether your preferences are salty, bitter or all of the five basic tastes, this fun food quiz will determine just how old you really are!
